THIS IS WHERE THE TRUE MAGIC LIES…   In stuff that doesn’t scale.   A long held belief… that was forgotten for a spell. 😬   And there is no better example than THE PEANUT BUTTER TASTING SCHOOL.   We actually created it as far back as 2021. Bang in the middle of the aforementioned 'spell'?   How the EFF do you deliver this pernickety bit of magic at scale? You can't. So we stashed it.   Until this year, when… ☝   Like a delicious, oozing, highly interactive phoenix, it rose from the ashes.   Since the rebirth, it has proved to be, genuinely, one of my proudest creations.   💪It's toured the country as The centrepiece of Mani brand days to 'The Trade' (/Peanut Butter Tasting Students ) 💰 It's raised £1000s for charity as a silent auction prize. 💥 It's been the cornerstone of every new joiners' induction. 👀 It's given me 8 (9??) excuses to see Alice Shrubsall who holds the record (and will do, I think forever) for most Peanut Butter Tasting Schools attended.   All in all A LOT of time and effort has gone in to delivering this to c. 98 people total. But ☝ those 98 people have reached the pinnacle of Peanut Butter enlightenment because of it. Which can only be a good thing.   👉 If you're a ManiLife customer and haven't attended a school... 👉 If you're an aspiring ManiLife customer, intrigued to understand the intricacies of Peanut Butter and why they are not all the same... 👉 If you're a development chef at one of the few remaining UK restaurants that still handle peanuts🙈 and want to understand how and why this stuff is one of the greatest ingredients on earth...   DM/comment below and await utter magic. ------------------------ Unfortunately, we still haven't found a way to deliver it to the public at a price that's remotely reasonable but we're working on it.. 😬   #PeanutButterTastingSchool

If you can’t manage small things in life, be assured you will not get big things in life. It’s a process. 1. Finish what you have in plate before asking for a second serving. 2. If you throw away the first serving just to get the second serving, you will be noticed and will never be invited to the table again. 3. Do not complain of your first serving, you will not get the second serving. 4. Have an appetite for the second serving before asking for one. 5. Eat your first serving with the hope of getting the second. 6. Enjoy every mouth of your meal, first or second. 7. Be grateful for the first serving, you are sure to get another one.

“I am 100% down.” That was Guy’s text response to me exactly 4 years ago today, on March 13, 2020. While early in the Pandemic, it was abundantly clear that CoVid was going to wreak havoc on restaurants.  Guy, when asked to help, not only jumped in-he took charge. His primary goal was to help the millions of restaurant workers left jobless as restaurants around the country shuttered their doors.  Within days, the Restaurant Employee Relief Fund (the “RERF”) rerf.us was born. With a few short weeks, it had raised and distributed over $20,000,000 to over 40,000 impacted restaurant workers. The relief fund took a huge team effort. So many great companies and people.  But Guy made it happen. He reached out personally to countless CEOs for donations, made himself available at all hours for interviews, conversations, and anything else needed to support the cause.   Why? He didn’t need to do this. In fact, given all of his other professional obligations during this tumultuous and uncertain time, some questioned his intense commitment to the challenges facing restaurants and their employees. First, Guy is an extraordinary person who cares about people. He has always jumped in to help others in need, no matter the challenge.   But equally important, he understands the critical, intangible value of our restaurants, especially to those who need opportunity the most.  Guy knows that restaurants represent the best of America itself, and that our restaurant employees are its beating heart. It's hard to believe, but 4 years later we have challenges even trickier than CoVid facing the restaurant industry.  However, today, unlike 2020, the biggest threats come not from a deadly virus, but from elected officials and legislation that harms jobs and business. It’s time for us to channel our “inner Guy” and be people of action and purpose; to work with lawmakers to create laws that help restaurants and employees thrive, and to repeal, repel and quash any that don’t. So, on the 4 year anniversary of Guy’s Restaurant Employee Relief Fund, to all of you who are “100% down”,  a toast to you, restaurateurs, restaurant employees, and to the great Mayor of Flavortown.  The best days for restaurants are ahead! #guyfieri2024 #presidentofflavortownusa Team RERF Guy Fieri PepsiCo The Elliot Group National Restaurant Association Ecolab Uber Tito's Handmade VodkaNational Restaurant Association Educational Foundation (NRAEF) California Restaurant Association Strathearn, Reid Kimberly K.
